Holy Pazoolas, Marvin Gardens was right!

“Hat to combat cell phone health worries

The "Mobile Cap," going on sale for 385 Norwegian crowns ($53) each, includes a light metal tissue that channels almost 100 percent of radio waves away from the head while allowing sound to pass through.

"The cap has a layer of woven silver," Walter Kraus, head of the Handy-Fashions group that produces the headwear, said. "It's no heavier than a normal cap." The blue or black peaked caps have flaps that fold down over the ear.

Some people worry that radio emissions from mobile telephones can cause brain tumors or other cancers. But international studies of possible dangers have produced often conflicting evidence.

The scientific evidence
A recent study by Australian researchers over three years found that radio emissions from mobile phones did not trigger tumors in mice, and so probably did not do so in humans either.

That followed another Australian study on mice five years ago that said cellular phones could foster tumor growth.

Swedish researchers said that long-term users of first-generation mobiles faced an 80 percent greater risk than non-users of developing brain tumors. But a Danish study last year of 400,000 mobile phone users found no greater cancer risk.

Filtering out emissions
Professor Peter Pauli of the University of the German Armed Forces said that materials of fine woven metal like silver, copper or steel could filter out about 95 percent of emissions from a mobile phone.

"Similar tissues are used to shield sensitive items in rockets and explosives," he said. In military equipment, the metal helps prevent sudden radio bursts from detonating a charge and so could also deflect radiation from the head.”

“you doubted?”

“I am a professional cynic!”

“I guess you wouldn't want to be wearing it during an electrical storm.”

“Bet THAT would short out the Pacemaker!”

“Will it work for meteors?”

“Marvin Knows All!

Next stop... ROSWELL.”

“Short drive for you, Tilt...”

“I hope Marvin will drop by and comment on this. I'm not too handy at cutting out tinfoil hats. Besides, I'm not sure they'll let my have sharp pointy things around here.”

“I think if Marvin heard about this, he'd say not to buy into it, it's just a government TOOL to make you feel SAFE while it ACTUALLY HELPS them LOCATE YOUR BRAIN on the national BRAIN locating COMPUTER they have in the white HOUSE.
The homemade tinfoil ones are still the original, and the best.”

“So where is MG anyway?????

I bet he is flying around in his spaceship or something!

“The ALIENS got MG.”

“Shorter drive for Pathman, LOL”
